I Have Legitimate Concerns About Islam And That's Not Bigotry

@fredmohar: Thank you for the Guardian link. You should learn how to read English though. It says that 87% of British Muslims, feel a sense of belonging to Britain. That is higher that the general population, which stands at 81%.

BTW, the French Amnesty International report you posted, gives Tunisia thumbs up, on most everything, with the exception of:

Abortion rights: Abortion was legal in Tunisia, 2 years before it became legal in France, and before it became legal in the US. The complaint, is that some services try to intimidate women who seek an abortion. The same thing happens in the US. Some people try to impose their morals on others, but the law remains the law. In fact, Abortion, for women who have 5 kids, has been legal in Tunisia, since 1965.

Domestic violence: the rate there, according to Amnesty, seems to be fairly similar to that in the USA.

So, they ended up with a maybe, but progress was made. I would have given it a passing grade.

As to Lebanon, and regardless of what Hezballah is doing, the question is: do women enjoy protection under the law, and the answer is absolutely. And, if you're not aware of it, Lebanon is 2/3 Muslim, but the Muslims of Lebanon, protect, with their lives, the constitution, which states that the President will always be Catholic, and the same for the commander of the armed forces, as well as Intelligence Services, and that the Governor of the Bank of Lebanon, is Christian. Yes, they have a number of political parties, but their disagreements are no different from those in European countries, or the US. Don't pretend to be an expert on things you don't understand. In fact, during a visit to Lebanon, a few years back, we ended up at a beach with a group of Americans. The normal thing, is to go topless. We stood out, because our party had clothes on. We also stood out, because a woman in our party, complained to management, because two female guests were kissing and making out publicly.
